How far would you travel to heal someone you love? For one Texas couple, it means a spiritual journey to Mongolia. When their son is diagnosed with autism, they seek the best treatments but nothing works—until they discover their son’s connection to horses and the effect it has on him. Part travel adventure and shamanic quest, this film will tell the story of how one family found a gateway into understanding their son’s life.
